More Cotton Hats

I can't get enough of this pattern! I made three more last week: And here is one of them in use. It is such a quick, interesting pattern- easy, but not boring, and looks absolutely adorable on. Case in point:

Children's Cotton Hat

I made two cotton hats from leftover yarn I had at home. They are for recently born twins- a girl and a boy- so I made the smallest size. I really like this pattern- it is a lot of fun to knit.

Hourglass Sweater

Has anyone made the hourglass sweater? I want to buy the yarn to make it as my first sweater. Does anyone know if it fits well, or anything like that?

Thanks!

Mini Sweaters

I am planning on knitting mini sweaters for my uncles as Christmas presents. I am going to knit the sweaters in white or green and embroider their initials on it. I think that they will love the present. I am going to make hangers out of pipe cleaners so they can hang them on the Christmas tree! This way it will be faster to knit then scarves!

Last night I got a totally awesome camera that is really expensive. However, it was a gift so I did not have to buy it. My parents gave it to me as a present for making the National Junior Honors Society!!!!!!!

Children's Cotton Hat

Hi! I'm laptitelili, I'm French, and the Children's Cotton Hat is my first knit from the book Last Minute Knitted Gift. I used a dicontinued yarn of Bergère de France (Cotonature), and I omited to do the I-cord, because the hat is a gift for a little boy. It was indeed really fast to knit!

Hello

Thanks for allowing me to join this KAL. I've been wanting to do the lace camisole and the pouch for some time. I have yarn for both, though the pouch can really be done in just about any kind of yarn I guess. The yarn for the camisole is some Knit Pick's Shine Sport in a beautiful royal blue color. I've got several ideas for the pouch, even one that is a heavy weight. I suppose that it will be a quick enough knit that I could do it in all of the yarn I'd like. Hopefully now I'll have the inspiration I need to start.
